Keep your middle school and high school students active by playing the TWO EXTREMES game. The facilitator will use a stack of cards listing things, activities or places that fall at opposite ends of the spectrum, such as: salty or sweet, London or New York, Mac or PC.
The students start standing in a big group, but when each choice is read, they move to the side of the room that the facilitator indicates is associated with their choice (see the arrows on the cards). Those who can’t make up their mind or don’t have a preference remain in the center. Students will see all of the things that they have in common with their classmates and will likely learn some new vocabulary while they’re at it!
These cards are great for middle school or high school and can be used at any time, especially when everyone needs a break and needs to stand up and move around a bit.

Most sentences on the cards include imperfect clue words like: d'habitude, souvent, toujours, etc. There is an answer key that students can use to check their work. Perfect supplement for core French, French immersion and homeschool curriculums.
Using the imperfect tense is essential to forming a strong base knowledge of French, yet it can be difficult to master without lots and lots of practice and review. You can pull this game out time and time again over the course of the years as a no-prep activity. Detailed instructions on how to play are included so that even subs can have your students play this fun game when you need to be away.
How to play QUEL DOMMAGE:

Put all of the game pieces in a box and divide your students into small teams. Give each team gets a box of questions and a copy of the answer key.
Students fill in the blanks with the correct conjugation of the indicated verb in the imperfect tense and say the sentence correctly. When they are correct (their opponents or team members can verify responses on the provided answer key), they get to keep their game card. However, when they draw a QUEL DOMMAGE card they have to put all of their game cards back in the box. The student with the most game cards at the end is the winner.

Everyone loves a good game of BATTLESHIP, and the French classroom is a better place than any! You can use this classic game format to have your students practice the futur simple tense. This game is perfect for both core and immersion curriculums and everything written on the games is in French.
*There is not an answer key included with this resource due to the number of responses possible. I encourage you to allow your students to use a resource that you choose for them to check your answers.
Just print out one page of the version of this game that you want to use per student. Students place boats (which are squares on the game sheets that they will have darkened with a pencil) on the game board. Students play against each other to try to find and eventually sink their opponent’s boats.
Subject pronouns are written in the vertical column and infinitives are written in the boxes at the top. To choose a square, the player must say the subject and correct verb form in the imperfect tense. Another idea is to have students make simple sentences using the subject pronoun and verb of choice.
All of the vocabulary they’ll need is written right on the game sheet and it is all in French. Each game sheet includes two battleship grids and a line separating the two. Students can fold the paper on the line if they want to. One of the grids is for a player to place his boats and the other is to mark and keep track of his opponent.
This resource includes 5 versions of the game with both black and white and color copies and instructions on how to play.

Fall vocabulary - 30 speaking prompt question cards in English
Want your students to use their AUTUMN and FALL vocabulary in meaningful conversations? This NO PREP activity is a fun way to encourage your students to speak more to each other. This resource is suitable for any curriculum in which English is the language spoken, and will work best for students in 6th to 12th grade.
You can use these cards after learning specific vocabulary for fall or as a fun interactive activity on a day when you want to just focus on speaking and reviewing vocabulary in a different way.
